Motor Vehicle Accidents Take Various Forms
Some of the most common types of car accident cases our attorneys handle include:
- Head-on collisions: Two vehicles colliding head-on can result in catastrophic injuries or death, particularly if high rates of speed were involved.
Rear-end collisions: Whether the underlying cause was distracted/impaired driving or tailgating, rear-end collisions can leave victims dealing with serious injuries. - T-bone crashes: This type of crash can occur on either the driver’s side or passenger’s side when another vehicle hits the side of the car. Victims can be seriously hurt, particularly when the impact hits the driver’s side of the car.
- Hit-and-run incidents: When a driver causes an accident and leaves the scene before law enforcement arrives, it can be more difficult to pursue justice. Van Sant Law has helped hit-and-run accident victims obtain compensation for their injuries.
- Multi-vehicle accidents: In multi-vehicle crashes, there are often several people who bear some responsibility for the accident. Our attorneys are adept at helping victims navigate the challenges that come with multiple defendants.
